Between September 2023 and September 2024, grocery store food prices in the US grew by 1.3 percent — but some food items saw significantly bigger price increases than others.

Using Bureau of Labor statistics data, USAFacts tracked the average prices of selected groceries over the course of 12 months.

Eggs saw the biggest price increase of any grocery staple, rising from $2.06 per dozen to $3.82 over the year analyzed — a hike of 85 percent.

The average price of beef also grew considerably (11 percent), followed by tomatoes (5 percent), chicken (4.1 percent) and whole milk (1.4 percent).

Some food items are cheaper than they were a year ago, though. Potato prices fell by an average of 3.6 percent, while the cost of cheese and bananas decreased by 2.0 percent and 0.2 percent, respectively.
